Standish Lawder's four minute abridgement of D.W. Griffith's 1916 colossus. Processed "entirely automatically" and 'skip-printed' on homemade hardware, Intolerance is played at a speed and rhythm "as fast as possible, and yet one can still follow the narrative continuity of the film itself"; According to Lawder, "A kind of classic comic condensation, an encapsulation of this grand monument". Premiered in 1973 on television on Screening Room with Robert Gardner, to a lukewarm reaction from those present.
